Sunday, February 29, 2004Au Revoir
My name is David,
he spoke into the phone. I only speak a bit of
French.
Yes?
Is there anyone there who can speak English?
Yes, but perhaps we can speak in French anyway?
He said ok.
The conversation didn't last long. He wanted a room for a night in July. Nothing was available, but she told him they had rooms the night before and two nights after.
He didn't know what to say. Not due to surprise. He simply did not know how to respond in French.
There was brief silence on the long distance telephone lines.
Au revoir?
she suggested.
Au revoir,
he said.
